Qudexy XR

Fort Wayne, IN

@Topamax vs Quidexy XL anyone have their child on either of these? Is losing hair a side effect and is this drug a better option for energy during the school day?
Thanks

Vimpat

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭
St. Louis, MO

I was put on vimpat a few months ago
In the hopes of weaning off of topamax all together since topamax is not safe with pregnancy. Since starting vimpat I have been feeling extremely tired and just not like myself at all. It has not gotten rid of my seizures at night so my nuerologist wants to keep me on it a bit longer to see if it will kick in. Does anyone have experience with this medication and know how long it took to get rid of seizures/what dosage? Did the side effects get better?

Thanks

Vimpat is an enhancer as well. So it also made the Topomax a little more. It does make you really sleepy. It also was the slowest one I ever took to adjust! I was starting to get impatient until it… read more

Changing Medication From Immediate Release To Extended Release

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭
North Riverside, IL

I have been on Lamictal since July of last year. After we got to the dosage my doctor wanted, we found that my level runs on the low side. It still is in the therapeutic range but some days it dips low from being off by an hour when I take it and I start getting auras and absence seizures. The doctor gave me two options: take lamictal three times a day or switch to Lamictal XR. I thought there was only brand name lamictal XR so I opted for 3 times a day until I discovered lamotrigine ER a.k.a… read more
